QUOTE(cheongster86 @ Sep 23 2019, 10:06 AM) Supercaliber is overkill for Malaysian terrain. Over kill?it was designed for the rocky mountains in US. if you want a Trek, get last years Procaliber at a discount. it already have the adjustable softtail. price for frame only probably around 10k only. in my opinion not worth it to buy fullsus. even a softtail is ridiculous. a high-end hardtail like the S-Works Epic can do the same thing nowadays. same character but lighter and maintenance free. I thought this new trek is designed to ride like a hard tail but with some full suspension characteristics? |

QUOTE(cheongster86 @ Sep 23 2019, 10:21 AM) this is the same marketing ploy every year lah. Trueyou can get the same full suspension characteristics from a hardtail by making the seatstay flexy. same formula every years, just small2 gimmick change. world pro rider also only use fullsus on rocky and long distance race so they dont easily tired. if the terrain is like in Malaysia, they still use hardtail. Our jamboree also 30-50km only. Not like in US their jamboree can go 200km like the infamous Leadville 100. Thats why fullsus is very popular there. |
